Hyundai Sonata: Engine Control System / Ambient Temperature Sensor (ATS) Description and Operation
Ambient Temperature Sensor (ATS) is installed on the
front-end module and senses the ambient temperature. ECM receives not
only the intake air temperatue but also the ambient air temperature
informations at the same time to control the intake air quantity
precisely provided through the turbo charger. The electrical resistance
of the thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and increases
as the temperature decreases This sensor has a Negative Temperature
Coefficient (NTC) and its resistance is in inverse proportion to the
temperature.
Inspection
1.
Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2.
Disconnect the IATS connector.
3.
Measure resistance between the IATS terminals 3 and 4.
4.
Check that the resistance is within the speci ...
